History by Joyce M. Tice

School Photos of the Tri-CountiesSwamp School in Blossburg

Although this is Labeled Swamp School, Blossburg PA, I suspect it was
in Bloss Township instead and not in the borough of Blossburg. Dated ca
1904. [Wrong - see note below]

November 2007 - On the page indicated above you have a picture of the Swamp
School. This building was located at the corner of Granger and Lynd
Streets in the Borough of Blossburg. The home behind it is still
there as well (located on Granger St). A grandson of the owner still
lives there.

The Swamp School was one of the elementary schools in Blossburg that
began with first grade (no kindergarten) in a shared room with second grade
and I know went through fourth but can’t say if it went into higher grades.

The information is from my aunt (Mary Catherine Shedlawski) that attended
this school.

Your site just keeps getting better and better. THANKS!
